We were just here one night but we both agreed we would have been happy with multiple nights. The room was clean and updated. The staff is responsive to texts. Had a nice kitchen and the bathroom was a decent size for two people. Parking was easy and plentiful. Very convenient to Exit Glacier and close enough to town.

We felt as though effort was made to make our stay comfortable. The room with two queen beds and kitchenette was clean and had all the amenities to make our three day stay comfortable. The beds and pillows were cozy and bedding was, smelled fresh and clean. The decor was simple, functional and nice. Thank you Spruce Lodge, Karen and Chrissy, sisters from Ontario, Canada

This is a beautiful property! Staff are friendly and very helpful. Not a lot of places to put clothes, so you live out of your suitcase. We had some issues with water pressure and temperature getting hot enough while showering.
